Whilst driving into work i was listening to Ian Wright on 5Live and he was stating how important a captain is in football compared to other sports - he was stating that they are extremely important and more so than other sports ?
This got me thinking about the role of a captain in various sports
Basically i believe that the role of captain within a football team is pretty much non critical - all the decisions and choices are made by the manager on the sideline
In rugby the captain has a more important role in terms of decisions made in regards penalties etc etc
In cricket - well they do the lot once the game starts
In golf we only have the Ryder Cup and those guys also do the lot in terms of decision making
I know Wright is extremely pro football and at times struggles to understand they have other sports in the world but is he right about a football captain ?
